    I capture
    ‘Element: E-Mail’
    With the built in contact form
    Unfortunately this method sends the message on to ‘Your email address’ using ‘Element: E-Mail’ as sender
    Can sender be changed to fixed address and element simply included in body?

    Reason: Hard code sender to bypass spam filter

    Hi!

    You can hard code that in framework/php/class-form-generator.php, line 664 and line 669:

    $header .= 'From: '. $from . " <".$from."> \r\n";

    Best regards,

    OK so looking at those, and not really understanding what I am looking at:

    foreach($copy as $send_to_mail)
			{
				if($use_wpmail)
				{
					$header .= 'From: '. $from . " <".$from."> \r\n";
					wp_mail($send_to_mail, $subject, $message, $header);
				}
				else
				{
					$header .= 'From:'. $from . " \r\n";
					mail($send_to_mail, $subject, $message, $header);
				}
			}

    is my change something like:

    foreach($copy as $send_to_mail)
			{
				if($use_wpmail)
				{
					$header .= 'From: '.  (Email address hidden if logged out)  . " <".$from."> \r\n";
					wp_mail($send_to_mail, $from, $subject, $message, $header);
				}
				else
				{
					$header .= 'From:'.  (Email address hidden if logged out)  . " \r\n";
					mail($send_to_mail, $from, $subject, $message, $header);
				}
			}

    Hi!

    This would be the code:

    foreach($copy as $send_to_mail)
{
	if($use_wpmail)
	{
		$header .= 'From:  (Email address hidden if logged out)  < (Email address hidden if logged out) > \r\n';
		wp_mail($send_to_mail, $from, $subject, $message, $header);
	}
	else
	{
		$header .= 'From:  (Email address hidden if logged out)  \r\n';
		mail($send_to_mail, $from, $subject, $message, $header);
	}
}

    Regards,

    Oddly
    Subject is received as what the user enters as their email address
    and
    From WordPress < (Email address hidden if logged out) >
    and
    the body of the message is what the contact form has hard coded as the subject

    so its close

    Ok learned this

    By default, the WordPress mailer fills in the From: field with (Email address hidden if logged out) and the From: name as WordPress.
